Chipmunk

[bteague2]

Had an opportunity over spring break to clean and cook a chipmunk.

I just cut down the back along the spine to start pulling off the fur. Cut between the ribs and skin/fur as I pulled and once I got enough to grip just pulled the rest off. Then I cut off the head and cleaned out the guts with my fingers and put it on a stick to cook over the fire. After it was done, smeared a little tabasco sauce on it and breakfast.

It was an interesting experience and it didn't taste that bad.

I've got some rats that'll give you a little more meat you can have!

Just a mini squirrel, shouldn't taste bad at all, squirrel is pretty good.

You should hook up with Mike357, he has an endless source of chipmunks apparently.

Somebody has been watching to much Man vs Wild...

[Oh Shoot]

Them tree rats and ground rats are purty good, but pale in comparison to a nice whistle pig - that's really some fine eatin'.

Ok I will need to know when this took place as we are checking the national season on chipmunks and believe you have made an illegal harvest. We will be in touch:death:

The last time I killed a chipmunk all I had left was the tail and two strips of skin on either side, shot it with a 12 more or less between my legs. I was going across some rocks and someone had just told me about all of the rattlesnakes they had seen there. Dust to Dust wasnt even close.

I was in fear of my life officer. And mine was a head shot so no meat lost.
